Celebrate your child’s art with My Story, the simplest story maker and book creator in the App Store. My Story combines drawing, photos, voice, and text to promote literacy and creativity for you and your child together.

✰ Your Child, The Author ✰
Your child becomes an author with My Story, creating beautiful ebooks using simple tools for drawing, photo importing, voice recording, and more! Your child can then share books within the app, via email, or directly to iBooks. Your child’s art, coloring, photos, and voice recordings are saved forever!

Drawing. Coloring. Storytelling. Imagination. For less than a box of crayons, My Story helps kids expand these art skills and self-expression in a whole new way, giving parents, teachers, and counselors one more tool to help develop these crucial literacy skills.
